Select Dial Up.
The FortiGate unit initiates dialing into each dialup account in turn until the modem 
connects to an ISP.

Configuring modem settings

Configure modem settings so that the FortiGate unit uses the modem to connect to 
your ISP dialup accounts. You can configure the modem to connect to up to three 
dialup accounts. You can also enable and disable FortiGate modem support, 
configure what the modem dials, and select the FortiGate interface that the modem is 
redundant for.
